WebdriverIO Package to execute Cucumber scenarios in parallel
npm install @mdeeter/wdio-cucumber-parallel-execution> Note: This is a fork of SimitTomar/wdio-cucumber-parallel-execution with additional updates and maintenance.
ff supports multiple feature paths
---
A WebdriverIO capability for running Cucumber scenarios within Single/Multiple Feature Files in parallel.
The capability Segregates the entire Automation Suite into smallest independent chunks (Scenarios) and spawns numerous threads through WebdriverIOs maxInstances feature,thus reducing the Test Execution time drastically and allowing Teams to release much faster.
The Solution is Compatible with multiple versions of Nodejs (Ones supporting Async Await natively as well as ones which do not support it)
Handles merging of reports out of the box and provides a consolidated JSON Report Array, which can be leveraged for Reporting.
Star the repo if you find it useful :)
``
npm install @mdeeter/wdio-cucumber-parallel-execution --save-dev
Assuming 1 Scenario takes 1 minute on Average, Total Execution Time will be 1 minute for 9 Scenarios since all 9 Scenarios will get executed in parallel
The Module contains the following functions:
This Feature Creates/Removes the Spec and Temp Folders and puts every Scenario in a seperate Feature File
| Parameter | Type | Details |
| ------------------------ | ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| sourceSpecDirectory | string | relative path to feature directory. |
| tmpSpecDirectory | string | Path to temp folder containing the Temporary Feature Files (Gets removed in the next execution) |
| tagExpression (optional) | string. | Tag expression to parse |
| ff (optional) | string/array | feature file(s) - relative paths from source to feature file(s) |
| lang (optional) | string | Language of sourceSpecDirectory |
| cleanTmpSpecDirectory | Boolean. | Boolean for cleaning the Temp Spec Directory |
This Feature clubs the JSON Objects generated by every splitted Feature File and returns a consolidated JSON Array, which can be used for Reporting.
| Parameter | Type | Details |
| -------------------------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| parallelExecutionReportDirectory | string | Path to Parallel Execution Report Directory where all the Reports will be saved |
Say, in your webdriverio's config file, put the following code:
wdio.conf.js
`javascript
const argv = require("yargs").argv;
const wdioParallel = require("wdio-cucumber-parallel-execution");
// The below module is used for cucumber html report generation
const reporter = require("cucumber-html-reporter");
const currentTime = new Date().toJSON().replace(/:/g, "-");
const sourceSpecDirectory = path/to/featureFilesDirectory;path/to/parallelExecutionReportDirectory
const parallelExecutionReportDirectory = ;
let featureFilePath = ${sourceSpecDirectory}/*.feature;
// If parallel execution is set to true, then create the Split the feature files
// And store then in a tmp spec directory (created inside the source spec directory)
if (argv.parallel === "true") {
tmpSpecDirectory = ${sourceSpecDirectory}/tmp;
wdioParallel.performSetup({
sourceSpecDirectory: sourceSpecDirectory,
tmpSpecDirectory: tmpSpecDirectory,
cleanTmpSpecDirectory: true,
splitScenarioOutLineMultipleExamples: true,
});
featureFilePath = ${tmpSpecDirectory}/*.feature;
}
``
#### Alternatively use ff to assign individual feature files
`javascript
const argv = require("yargs").argv;
const wdioParallel = require("wdio-cucumber-parallel-execution");
// The below module is used for cucumber html report generation
const reporter = require("cucumber-html-reporter");
const currentTime = new Date().toJSON().replace(/:/g, "-");
const sourceSpecDirectory = path/to/featureFilesDirectory;path/to/parallelExecutionReportDirectory
const parallelExecutionReportDirectory = ;
let featureFilePath = ${sourceSpecDirectory}/*.feature;
// If parallel execution is set to true, then create the Split the feature files
// And store then in a tmp spec directory (created inside the source spec directory)
if (argv.parallel === "true") {
tmpSpecDirectory = ${sourceSpecDirectory}/tmp;
wdioParallel.performSetup({
sourceSpecDirectory: sourceSpecDirectory,
ff: "relative/path/from/source/to/feature-file.feature",
// or an array....
ff: [
"relative/path/from/source/to/feature-file1.feature",
"relative/path/from/source/to/feature-file2.feature",
],
tmpSpecDirectory: tmpSpecDirectory,
cleanTmpSpecDirectory: true,
});
featureFilePath = ${tmpSpecDirectory}/*.feature;
}
